exactly... I was not suggesting those terms as good equivalents...

I also think that street romance is the best equivalent so far ,but regarding the latter terms you suggested "one-night stand", "easy pick-up" ,neither are suitable because they both focus on the fleeting physical relationship ,not even much romantic sometimes,but "دوستيهاي خياباني " usually creates a much deeper bond and is specially used for very young inexperienced youth .

thanks... I wasn't quite sure how far the meaning went...

"street romance" certainly would apply to your description, too...

We have other terms like "one-night stand", "easy pick-up", but I think that including "street" brings it closer to the Persian.

@ Edward Plaisance Jr:
actually it means superficial non lasting ,inapropriate romance often between one or both parties being inappropriate (delinquent,rebellious ,drug addict,....)
